Her Watch is 6 minutes fast!!!
Lens: Sigma APO 300/2.8 + 1.4x TC Camera: Pentax K-5 Photo Location: Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia 
Posted By: cmohr, 03-03-2012, 04:11 AM

I took this today, I was looking at focus, and saw it looked a little off, she was about 75metres out in the surf, then I noticed something, "The time on her watch is fast" Maybes its so she doesn't miss the Bus in the mornings

Oh Yeah, I'm happy with it considering It was very lightly raining and poor light at the time, and I was standing knee deep in the surf.

Can't be the relativistic time effect. Besides that it is unlikely that she goes fast enough, her clock would then slow down compared to yours.

Another argument against the relativistic effect is that in that case the surf board would get shorter and shorter and she would get thinner...and I can't see that really.
